In the 1980s and beyond, starting with the McMartin case, the Pagans, the Satanists and the Wiccans all held hands condemning the pre-school child molestation cases as a Witch Hunt, ( http://www.dynionmwyn.net/lawguide/lawguide4.html). The survivors (in many cases their victims) of ritual abuse were accused of having false memories. According to them it was the Witches, Pagans, and Satanists who were the true victims, not the tiny tots. The fact that these groups all stood together shows they are connected. I think they had a reason to feel threatened, their guilt!
